I took the dog for a walk in my break at work, and my husband forgot to bring the keys for the front door. I work from home.
to cut a long story short this set my anxiety off, I was snappy and he was snappy back saying there was no need to be like that. I replied " what do you expect, I have sever anxiety?"
He replied " oh yeah ! Doesn't make it right though!"
It upsets me, and I don't know what to do, do I hide my anxiety ( which is going to be very difficult) from him.
I am not taking medication as I had a horrid horrid reaction to it, and to be honest I would like to try to get through this with out it.
Working, is horrid even when I don't have this, its a miserable job and they are very unsupportive.
I can understand him getting tired and fed up with me, and this. but it is just upsetting when the one person you need to understand treats you badly.

It is hard for our partners,husbands, I wouldn't want to be around someone who's depressed and anxious all the time...it must drag them down too.
That's not to say they shouldn't support us and yes ,
they are the one person you need to understand you.
Did he treat you badly, or was he reacting to you snapping at him?
I've recovered but although I didn't hide my Anx, I made sure I was still an equal partner in our relationship , even if I was putting on an act at times...I'd put happy face on, be fun to be with, be interested in his day, his problems etc.. I didn't want it to be all about me and how I felt..
